What Games and Projects Has Deepnight Games Released?

Updated

Deepnight Games is a one-man indie studio founded in 2020 by Sébastien Benard, the lead developer and game designer behind Dead Cells. Its itch.io page lists a mix of browser-playable games, downloadable titles, and development tools. Most games can be played directly in the browser; Nuclear Blaze is the one title with a listed price ($9.99), while the rest are presented without a price on the page.

Tools and Other Projects

Beyond games, the page includes two non-game projects:

  • LDtk level editor — a 2D level editor for indie developers, described as coming "from an industry veteran."
  • Tabletop RPG Map editor II — an app for creating tabletop RPG maps.

There is also a "Games I've worked on" section listing Badass Inc., a point-and-click action game with a chain-smoking cat as a contract killer, credited to Motion Twin and playable in the browser.

What to Expect

The catalog spans point-and-click adventure, action, puzzle, shooter, strategy, and experimental projects. Several entries are clearly small-scale or personal experiments — a game jam build, a game made for a toddler, and an experimental engine — so the page reads more like a working portfolio than a polished storefront. If you want the most substantial title, Nuclear Blaze is the standout with a listed price; if you want to sample the studio's range quickly, the browser-playable puzzle and action games are the easiest entry point.
